It's been rumored for a few weeks that Javier Bardem and Viggo Mortensen were up for the lead role of Roland in Ron Howard's adaptaion of The Dark Tower, but we've yet to hear any confirmation. Recently, Howard saidd that a script is still being worked on, so casting would be a ways off.
However, MTV cought up with producer Brian Grazer who had a different story to tell:
"...when we asked if he'd talked to the two actors about the part, he simply laughed and responded, 'Sure.' Grazer did say, however, that a casting announcement is imminent. How imminent? 'Within a week,' he said. Seriously? 'Seriously. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Seriously,' he assured us before asking, 'Who do you want?' Honestly, we'll take either of them. 'OK, great,' Grazer concluded."
No specific day was given, but we'll keep you updated once the announcement hits. It sounds as if it truly is down to Bardem |
